Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.
Curved rear windows on the parlor floor give this five-story townhouse in the Treadwell District much of its character.
The parlor floor has high ceilings, and hardwood runs through the house, so the rooms feel connected from one level to the next. Upgraded HVAC and central air run throughout the house.
A townhouse like this gives you more separation between living areas than most apartments do. The garden floor holds a custom kitchen with Viking appliances, and it opens toward a deep garden. The stairs connect five floors, and owning the whole building means you also carry its upkeep, so weigh that before you buy.
The garden faces south, which matters if you'll use the outdoor space in the afternoon. On the winter solstice, a south window gets 8.5 hours of direct sun, from 7:41 AM to 4:07 PM. That figure assumes an open horizon, and nearby buildings can block it.
The third floor primary suite has a limestone bath with radiant heated floors.
A bonus room on that floor can work as an office, a bedroom or a walk-in closet, and two fourth floor bedrooms share a bath finished in tumbled marble with radiant heated floors.
The fifth floor is open and flexible, with terraces on two opposite sides and a mini bar area, and the listing suggests a home theater, lounge or studio.
The high-ceiling cellar leaves room for a gym, wine storage or extra storage. The Lexington Av/59 St station is about 5 minutes away on foot, with the 4, 5, 6, N, R and W trains, and Queensboro Oval and St. Catherine's Park are each about 7 minutes away on foot.
